Can the disallowed petitioning paragraphs to date be obtained and scrutinised and a Standing Committee be established to deal with the very important matters arising for route changes currently out of the remit of the Select Committee which need assessing as the HS2 route does not result in the least damage or the greatest benefits.

The people losing land and businesses and communities losing facilities deserve another Standing Committee or Bill Committee to take seriously the impacts not addressible by the Select Committee.

Also the current petitioner assurances and undertakings should be put to another Committee that can consider the collective impacts from the petions todate and the how route changes can reduce damage and add benefits in some sections.

Can the Government provide a budget for the mitigation costs from the petitions heard and for those thousand plus remaining.

The HS2 Route from London to Birmingham neither optimises regeneration or the rail and road to rail connectivity and does not result in the least damage and loss in rural sections from the M25 to the M42/M6.

Time for a stock take of the damage and loss and the issues not being permitted from the Select Committee and HS2. Ask your MP what they can do to have another Committee deal with the large changes needed please. Merry Christmas and a better and more restorative 2015.
